A TOPIC OF INTEREST.
Rates ON Dressed Meat and Rates or
Live stock.

Rates ON Dressed Meat and Rates on
Live stock.
Wall Street News, 25: The rates on
dressed meats are seventy five per cent.
higher than on live stock. Dressed
meats are carried in specially construct
ed refrigerator cars, which are heavier
and costlier than cars in which cattle are
carried. 1t is also claimed that refriger-
stor cars necessarily ran back empty,
while cattle cars may carry return loads
of certain kinds of freight, such for in
stance 40 coal. The fact is, however,
that the return loads on cattle cars bear
but very small proportion to the loads
OF cattle carried eastward. Cattle cars
refrigerator cars, and the principal diff
ference in expense OF transporting the
two classes of freight is found, therefore,
in the greater cost and weight of the re-
| frigerator car.
since dressed beef traffic frat begun
the shippers have been complaining of
the exorbitant rates charged by the rail-
| roads as compared with rates on live
stock. The increased rate at one time
| largely exceeded 100 per cent. on
| dressed meats over live stock and the
matter was submitted few years ago
to Judge Cooley to pass upon as arbltra.
tor. He fixed upon 75 per cent, and
that difference has since been charged
upon the grounds OF the higher cost Of
transporting dressed meats and the ne
cessity of SO equalizing the two Glasses
| OF traffic that both should live.
The real object In charging the 81
largely increased rates on dressed meats
are, first, to tax ths traffic for all tha
it will bear and, next, to prevent 1t from
growing to the point of crowding oct
live stock traffic and making the trans
portation thereof thing of the past, th.
same as stage lines were made whel
railroads put in an appearance. Tha

The Tribune's nervousness.

The Chicago Tribune is beginning to
realize that it went too far IN its op
position to the dependent pension bill
1t now says that the president vetoed it
and the house sustained that veto, be-
cause the bill WAS SO loosely and vaguely
worded, 1t was clearly in the interests oi
the claim agent, bat that another bill,
OF the same mt ture. with clearer pro-
visions, would meet with little opposi.
tlen. AS a matter of fact, the original
opposition OF the Tribune to the bill was
placed on no such grounds. The Tribune
styled it the pauper bill, and put its OPP
position on the ground that deserving
soldiers were already provided for, and
that the whole scheme was q
daring raid on the treasury,
which even the soldiers themselves were
opposed to. Since that time the soldiers
have spoken, and IL no uncertain tones.
in favor of the bill. The exceptions
we're 80 few that the opposition of
soldiers amounted to nothing at all
Not single body of soldiers in the
whole length and breadth of the land
have placed themselves on record as
opposing it. The few that have spoken
IN opposition to 1t were generally demo-
Gratis, who considered it better to uphold
Cleveland, even if the claims of the
soldiers were ignored. There has never
in the history OF this country, been
more unanimity among the soldiers, or
ex-soldiers, than there is on the subject
of the dependent pension bill. The
Tribune should have carefully read over
the fable Of Old Dog Tray before it Join
ed the democratic cohorts.-P Peoria

twelve to fifteen inches single column
which we will have Aectrotyped to save
the cost of composition.
Now we should like your lowest price
per statement and we win be pleased to
favor you if possible. OF course you
understand the statement is to have
three insertions. Yours Truly.
LORD & THOMAS.
Under the law, or the misinterprets-
tion of the law by the auditor, all this is
possible. Insurance companies are re-
qulred to publish annually statements
OF their condition that their customers in
Dakota may know their standing. The
theory of The law is that this class OF
advertising shall go to Dakota news
papers and another law provides rate
at which all such advertising shall be
inserted in suoh newspapers. There is,
however, q defect in these various en-
actmsnts which permits the auditor, if
disposed, to throw this class of patron
age into the hands of foreign specula-
tors. The letter above quoted will show
our brethren of the press and the gen.
eral public the possibilities In this
direction. Should we comply
with the proposition of Messrs.
Lord & Thomas, which we are not dis
posed to do, all the profit for the pub
lication of insurance statements would
go to them, Chicago firm, and to us
would be given only the opportunity to
do the work without profit. So far as we
are concerned we do not want advertising
under any such terms. The people OF
Dakota are taxed by insurance COM
panies to pay for this ivertising. News-
papers publishers contribute their share
OF this levy and in return the money
which might be kept at home and go
into legitimate business channels is di-
yerted to eastern speculstors.
Under the old plan of advertising in
sursnoe statements the local insurance
agents were given the entire field. in
stead OF being restricted to three news.
papers in district. They were COM
pslled to pay fair compensation for
space in newspaper and were not en-
oouraged to place theiz business In the
hands of metropolitan middle men,
to the injury of home interests.
The auditor of the territory has. un-
der present statutes, absolute control of
the disposition Of the annual statements
of insurance companies and is free to ex-
ercise his liberaity or his prejudice for
or against fayorites or enemies or in
behalf OF foreign advertising associations
like this concern represented by Lord &
Thompson. That this power has been
used to the disadvantage OF interested
parties is susceptible of demonstration
at least in the case OF the Yankton in.
surance company, whose statements are
condemned to the oblivion of obscure
newspapers in small rural villages of the
district or are turned over to the tender
aercies of eastern middle men. The in
surance company is compelled to pay
high rates for advertising in places where
it will do the company no good.
There are these and other evils in con.
nection with the present system of pub.
fishing insurance statements which
should receive the attention of the legis.
lature at the present session The Law
as it ia expounded in the code OF 1887
should be re-enacted,

There is a certain class of remedies for con-
stipRtion absolutely useless These are boluses
and potiona made in great part of podophyl-

stonaachs of those who use them iB inoalcula-
BILE. They eYacunte the bowels, it is true but
always do so violently and profusely, and be-
sides, gripe the bowels. Their effect is to
weaken both them and the stomach. Better
far to use the agreeable and salutary aperient.

effect of which is never preceded by pain, or
accompanied by eonyulsiye, violent action
of the bowels. On the contrary, 1t invigorates
those organs, the stomach and the entire sys-
TEN. As means of curing and preventing

il. and it remedies nervous debility, rheuma-
tism, kSney, and bladder Inactivity, and other
inorganic ailments.
